The Queenship of Mary

In Christian tradition, the Trinity was often depicted as placing a crown on Mary's head. This is why the Catholic Church celebrates the Memorial of the Queenship, or Coronation, of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Aug. 22. Father Chris Alar, MIC, reveals the biblical foundations for the feast for the Queen of Heaven and Earth. Then hear from Fr. Roger Landry and his group on their remarkable walking pilgrimage to the recent National Eucharistic Congress in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
